Age and aging Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Age and aging

1.
An aged Christian, with the snow of time upon his head, may remind us that those points of earth are whitest which are nearest to heaven.
Chapin, Edwin Hubbel

2.
Getting older is no problem. You just have to live long enough.
Marx, Groucho

3.
With sixty staring me in the face, I have developed inflammation of the sentence structure and definite hardening of the paragraphs.
Thurber, James

4.
I refuse to admit that I am more than 52, even if that makes my children illegitimate.
Astor, Lady Nancy

Grow old along with me! The best is yet to be, The last of life, for which the first was made.
Browning, Robert

6.
What a man knows at fifty that he did not know at twenty is for the most part incommunicable.
Stevenson, Adlai E.

7.
When your friends begin to flatter you on how young you look, it's a sure sign you're getting old.
Twain, Mark

8.
Now, aged 50, I'm just poised to shoot forth quite free straight and undeflected my bolts whatever they are.
Woolf, Virginia

9.
In mid-life the man wants to see how irresistible he still is to younger women. How they turn their hearts to stone and more or less commit a murder of their marriage I just don't know, but they do.
Neal, Patricia

10.
Old age is an insult. It's like being smacked.
Durrell, Lawrence

Men of my age live in a state of continual desperation.
Mcdonald, Trevor

Franklin, Benjamin

Age is a question of mind over matter. If you don't mind, age don't matter.
Paige, Leroy ''Satchel''

17.
Among the virtues and vices that make up the British character, we have one vice, at least, that Americans ought to view with sympathy. For they appear to be the only people who share it with us. I mean our worship of the antique. I do not refer to beauty or even historical association. I refer to age, to a quantity of years.
Golding, William

18.
As for old age, embrace and love it. It abounds with pleasure if you know how to use it. The gradually declining years are among the sweetest in a man's life, and I maintain that, even when they have reached the extreme limit, they have their pleasure still.
Seneca

19.
Old age has its pleasures, which, though different, are not less than the pleasures of youth.
Maugham, W. Somerset

20.

Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

21.
Old age though despised, is coveted by all.
Proverb

It is a sobering thought, that when Mozart was my age he had been dead for two years.
Lehrer, Tom

23.
I am thirty-three -- the age of the good Sans-culotte Jesus; an age fatal to revolutionists.
Desmoulins, Camille

24.
The older woman's love is not love of herself, nor of herself mirrored in a lover's eyes, nor is it corrupted by need. It is a feeling of tenderness so still and deep and warm that it gilds every grass blade and blesses every fly. It includes the ones who have a claim on it, and a great deal else besides. I wouldn't have missed it for the world.
Greer, Germaine

25.
When a noble life has prepared old age, it is not decline that it reveals, but the first days of immortality.
Stael, Germaine De

26.
For the first fourteen years for a rod they do while for the next as a pearl in the world they do shine. For the next trim beauty beginneth to swerve. For the next matrons or drudges they serve. For the next doth crave a staff for a stay. For the next a bier to fetch them away.
Tusser, Thomas

27.
You can free yourself from aging by reinterpreting your body and by grasping the link between belief and biology.
Chopra, Deepak

28.
But it's hard to be hip over thirty when everyone else is nineteen, when the last dance we learned was the Lindy, and the last we heard, girls who looked like Barbara Streisand were trying to do something about it.
Viorst, Judith

29.
They are all gone into the world of light, and I alone sit lingering here.
Vaughan, Henry

30.
Like a morning dream, life becomes more and more bright the longer we live, and the reason of everything appears more clear. What has puzzled us before seems less mysterious, and the crooked paths look straighter as we approach the end.
Richter, Jean Paul

31.
At twenty years of age the will reigns; at thirty, the wit; and at forty, the judgment.
Franklin, Benjamin

32.
At twenty a man is a peacock, at thirty a lion, at forty a camel, at fifty a serpent, at sixty a dog, at seventy an ape, at eighty a nothing at all.
Gracian, Baltasar

33.
The older we get the more we must limit ourselves if we wish to be active.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

34.
To resist the frigidity of old age, one must combine the body, the mind, and the heart. And to keep these in parallel vigor one must exercise, study, and love.
Bonstettin

35.

Age is whatever you think it is. You are as old as you think you are.

Here, with whitened hair, desires failing, strength ebbing out of him, with the sun gone down and with only the serenity and the calm warning of the evening star left to him, he drank to Life, to all it had been, to what it was, to what it would be. Hurrah!
O'Casey, Sean

Twenty years a child; twenty years running wild; twenty years a mature man --and after that, praying.
Proverb, Irish

44.
Nature is full of freaks, and now puts an old head on young shoulders, and then takes a young heart heating under fourscore winters.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

45.
Rejoice that you have still have a long time to live, before the thought comes to you that there is nothing more in the world to see.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

46.
The age of a woman doesn't mean a thing. The best tunes are played on the oldest fiddles.
Engel, Sigmund Z.

47.
The old -- like children -- talk to themselves, for they have reached that hopeless wisdom of experience which knows that though one were to cry it in the streets to multitudes, or whisper it in the kiss to one's beloved, the only ears that can ever hear one's secrets are one's own!
O'Neill, Eugene

48.
It is not how old you are, but how you are old.
Dressler, Marie

49.
An important antidote to American democracy is American gerontocracy. The positions of eminence and authority in Congress are allotted in accordance with length of service, regardless of quality. Superficial observers have long criticized the United States for making a fetish of youth. This is unfair. Uniquely among modern organs of public and private administration, its national legislature rewards senility.
Galbraith, John Kenneth

50.
A woman's always younger than a man at equal years.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett
